future.batchtools

A Future API for Parallel and Distributed Processing using 'batchtools'

v0.21.0 · Sep 20, 2025 · LGPL (>= 2.1)

Description

Implementation of the Future API <doi:10.32614/RJ-2021-048> on top of the 'batchtools' package. This allows you to process futures, as defined by the 'future' package, in parallel out of the box, not only on your local machine or ad-hoc cluster of machines, but also via high-performance compute ('HPC') job schedulers such as 'LSF', 'OpenLava', 'Slurm', 'SGE', and 'TORQUE' / 'PBS', e.g. 'y <- future.apply::future_lapply(files, FUN = process)'.
